PSA/DNA Maris Topps Card....Is this a stamp??

I had a '62 Maris card I bought on ebay years ago that turned out to be a stamped signature, and it looked suspiciously like the one on this '59 card, that PSA/DNA passed. Interested in other opinions. Price is also unusually low.

Those pieces are just so awesome....the team ball is really nice....that single signed is just way too sweet....I am sure your never going to part with those pieces but if you do I beg you to contact me first....those pieces are truly impressive and you are very fortunate to own those....I was once going to get a team ball with a authentic Maris and clubhouse Mantle....I didn't....it kept haunting me since I would just display it on the Maris side and when I decided to pull the trigger it got sold...Damn that hurt....sooner or later...hopefully sooner

I have really whittled down my collection from years ago, out of necessity. but these last couple hundred items I kept, I hope to always have. I think you did the right thing, I wouldn't want a team ball with any key clubhouse sigs, it would bother me just to look at it. I got a really good deal on this one about ten years ago, back when ebay truly was an auction site. now its a buy it now, with ridiculous prices. I miss the old days!

So true terrier....I just couldn't do it....anything Mantle Maris is like Ruth Gehrig...no one wants to part with them especially if there the real deal....I thank you for sharing your pieces with me and the rest of the collectors on this site....I know your going to hold on to them....but if worst comes to worst please dont hesitate to contact me.... (0: good point about eBay as well....good deals are long gone and all the rookies and the over bidding morons ruin good pieces at decent prices for real collectors most of the time....the only one that makes out are the sellers and eBay...

You will be at the top of the list! I hope I never get to the point where I HAVE to sell the remaining parts of my collection. I wish I had back the Munson's, clemente's, other Maris' and so many others that I had to part with.

Speaking of Ruth/Gehrig, I did manage to keep a cool ball from a 1929 barnstorming tour, that has Ruth, Gehrig, Hornsby, Hack Wilson, Hartnett, Cuyler and I think Vance on it (going by memory, at work now!) It was shellacked so the shellac darkened, but you can still the sigs very well.
